《漫威争锋》新模式允许50名玩家重演复仇者联盟终局之战

Marvel Rivals has comfortably settled into a “thing I played for a couple of months, then never touched again” place in my life, but as an Overwatch diehard, I continue to keep an eye on NetEase’s hero shooter as its success has deeply influenced Blizzard to get its shit together of late. However, in anticipation of Avengers: Doomsday, the game has been holding events recreating big moments from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The latest one will let you and 49 friends assemble to face off against Thanos and his legion of goons like in the final battle of Avengers: Endgame.

The Path to Doomsday – Avengers: Endgame event begins on October 24, and will pit 50 players against a giant Thanos and his army of aliens. Though the big purple guy is larger than your average hero, presumably so everyone can actually get some hits in, he’s also got massive AOE abilities to dish out damage against dozens of players at once. As you can see in the new trailer, Thanos can call down an aerial strike from his ship that can take out a whole army of players at once. He’s essentially a raid boss, and I’m curious just how coordinated 50 players could possibly be, or if they’ll even really need to be coordinated considering Thanos kinda looks like a giant bullet sponge.

From the looks of it, if you win the match, you’ll be treated to a scene of Tony Stark wearing the Infinity Gauntlet and snapping Thanos out of existence like he did in Endgame, and I’ll admit, I was moved. Enough to reinstall? Eh. We’ll see. If not, y’all have fun.
